· Turn on the water supply tap before switching on the ice maker. Never turn off the water
supply tap when the ice maker is working.
· Except to take ice from the storage bin, keep the bin door closed in order to reduce ice melting
and to promote proper ice formation.
· If the ice maker will not be used for a long time, before the next use it must be thoroughly
cleaned. Follow carefully any instructions provided for cleaning or use of sanitizing solution.
Do not leave any solution inside the ice maker after cleaning.
· DO NOT touch the condenser fins. The condenser fins are sharp and can be easily damaged.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Electrical Connections
Model FIM400
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded. The power cord of this appliance
is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug that mates with a standard 3-prong grounding wall
outlet to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from the appliance. Have the wall
outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to
have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
Models FIM600 and FIM1000
Both of these models require electrical inputs of 230VAC ~ 60Hz and their power cords are
equipped with plugs that will only fit specialized high-voltage outlets.
The ice maker should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a
voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance
and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from
overheated wires. Never unplug your ice maker by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the
plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet. Repair or replace immediately all power cords
that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion
damage along its length or at either end. When moving the ice maker, be careful not to damage
the power cord.
Extension Cord
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you
do NOT use an extension cord with this ice maker.
